housing commission

The National Baptist Convention Housing Commission (NBCHC) is a sub organization of the National Baptist Convention USA, Inc. (NBC), having been organized in 1984 by Dr. Charles Noble (Newark, OH) under the authorization of Dr. T.J. Jemison, then president of the National Baptist Convention.

Since its inception with the mission to develop affordable housing for low and moderate income persons, particularly for senior citizens and the disabled, the achievements have been notable.

The progress of the Housing Commission in the last 19 years includes: 30 housing sites in 27 cities and 15 states totaling 1036 units representing over $150,000,000.00 in funding.

The Neighborhood Network Program established by the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Office in 1996, is being successfully operated at several NBCHC property sites.

In this new millennium, the Housing Commission Ministry is committed to providing safe, comfortable and affordable housing that will allow men and women to live with dignity and pride in a place they can proudly call home.
